Time To Tell

Posted on: October 27th, 2017

February 21st, 2017 . I (15) got into a friends car(17) . he was high as a kite. we drove through my town just fooling around like teens do. we went down this road i asked him to turn around and take me home because i had a strange feeling. he said everything was fine not to worry. The road was a dead end. he parked the car and we were making out, he asked if i wanted to have sex i said no. He then pinned me down to the seat, i couldn’t move, i froze. i was screaming,yelling; “Please stop” “i don’t want to”. he didn’t listen. after that he took me home. i got ready for a cheer event and went as everything was normal. It wasn’t till a few days later it finally hit me , what had happened but by then it was too late. he has done it to several other girls now and i feel that guilt everyday that maybe if i had spoken up they wouldn’t have went though what i went through. He still walks around like he hasn’t destroyed so many young lives. it makes me sick seeing him around young girls knowing what there fate will be.

Thank you so much for sharing your story here. I know this can be kind of hard to believe but what he did to anyone else is NOT your fault. It is HIS bad decisions and you are not to blame for what he did to you or anyone else. After he took you home you did the best you could with what you knew at the time. I would encourage you to talk to someone about what happened to you – maybe a friend or a family member or a counselor? Sharing can make what you’re feeling feel so much lighter. I believe in you and I am sending you lots of love and support!!! Alexis

I see that you are aware of his motives towards young girls. You also say he has done this to several other girls. Maybe its time you all met each other. Its time to stop him continuing this disgusting behaviour for any future girls. Help them by not letting them become survivors too. Good luck in ypur decision.

I have a story alot the same from years ago that I did nothing about….why did in I scream or fight well I doubt the wild animals in the woods would have rescued me! To this day 16 years later I kindof regret nor reporting it. His daughter is now the same age I was wonder if he ever thinks about that? Try and look at as a lesson learned. Most men are not sick enough to rape a woman, that’s a special kind of sick. Very carful to not put yourself in that situation! If nothing else you have to look at it as a valuable lesson. Sorry this happened😠

I WASNT aware I had put myself in that situation , thanks for blaming the victims your worse than the rapists to say such a thing. By telling me “ very carful not to but yourself in that situation!” Or “if nothing else you have to look at it as a valuable lesson” . If our not here to support The victim don’t comment it makes us feel like it’s are fault!!!

The last 3 days since the Netflix launch of “Brave Miss World Collection” have been extraordinary. Countless new viewers are discovering the film and are expressing their reactions - here, on Twitter, on our website, and in many private messages and emails. Our existing followers are re-engaging with our community — posting comments supporting survivors who share their stories, and reflecting on how our society has changed since the film was first released in 2014, as well as on the changes in their own healing and understanding of their trauma.

Keep it coming! We love hearing from all of you!
